Sesshomoru sat down behind his desk and met his fellow taiyoukai leaders stare. Ryo and Makoto clearly wanted to discuss something with him. He had a very good idea what they wanted to talk about. The question that plagued him was where was Kenji? The kitsune taiyoukai was in the office when he excused himself and now he was not. Curious. For now he would dismiss his presence. “I had matters to attend to. What did you want to discuss with me?”

 

Ryu nodded his head. “Sesshomoru, I am sure you know what here for.”

 

The silver haired king stood to his feet and looked out of the two way mirror surrounding his office. His eyes narrowed slightly. What was Rin doing in the VIP section? Inu Yasha was supposed to be escorting her home not letting her gallivant with Kenji at the bar. A slight growl escaped him before he buried it deep within himself. He turned towards Ryu and Makoto. “I will take a mate when I see fit. I am still young with quite a few years left.”

 

“With demon hunters becoming more and more successful we can not afford to not have certain contingency plans in place.” Makoto folded his hands thoughtfully then looked towards the dragon demon lord.

 

“I understand you are still enjoying your adolescence, but you have responsibilities….”

 

“I am well aware of the responsibilities of my station, but neither you nor the other lords will force me into a rash decision. My youth in this matter is of no consequence.”

 

“What about the human?” Makoto asked. “She is quite beautiful.”

 

“O-Rin, is a human and is of no interest to me.”

 

Ryu stood to his feet. He had hoped that Sesshomoru would listen to reason or least pretend to do so. Perhaps the fox lord would do better. “The subject is closed then.”

 

The silver haired demon looked over the two demons suspiciously. They were never ones to simply close the subject that was more Kenji's style, speaking of which….

6-6-6

 

Rin sat across from Kenji and Inu Yasha with an amused look as the fox demon practically draped himself across Inu Yasha. “You know I won't bite, unless you want me to,” Kenji made a biting motion.

 

Inu Yasha jumped to his feet. A war would start if he didn't get out of there and he was sure Sesshomoru would rather he left than embarrass him and their name. “I have a mate, lech,” he grumbled, “and I don't swing that way.”

 

“Kagome's quite welcome to come along, I can have you both,” Kenji offered then grinned. “I would love to be the one to turn you.”

 

Inu Yasha balled his fists in restraint. “Kagome's my mate,” he growled as he leaned into Kenji's face aggressively.

 

Sensing that he was bringing the silver haired half demon to the edge, he sighed. “Okay fine then just you will have to do,” he replied just before flicking his tongue out and licking the tip of Inu Yasha's nose.

 

Inu Yasha jumped back flushing and disgusted as he wiped his nose. That was it! He looked towards Rin, “I'll be back in ten minutes,” he snapped before stalking off to the level below.

 

“Was that really necessary to get me alone,” Rin asked once he was gone.

 

Kenji smiled mischievously. “No, but it was fun that way.”

 

“I'm sure.” Rin reached for her glass then looked over the demon lord shrewdly. “You've managed to get me alone now.”

 

A light chuckle sounded from the fox across from her. “Yes, I did.”

 

“Why?” she asked. “What would a demon lord want with me?”

 

“Now that depends on the demon lord. I can think of two that wouldn't mind rutting with you until they couldn't see straight.” A shocked look crossed Rin's features making Kenji's smile grow even more. She had the most delightful responses to his direct/indirect chiding. “But if you must know, I want to have a little fun.”

 

Rin flushed. She could hardly believe what he was admitting to after what he said. This was ridiculous. “Not on your life.”

 

“I can see why he likes her,” he thought as he continued to observe her in amusement. “I was not referring to sex. I simply want to spend time with you. Get to know the real you.”

 

Uh-huh. Rin nodded her head. She may still be untouched, but she was not born yesterday. “I bet,” she said before rising. She was no demon's whore. “Not interested.” She walked past him.

 

“Not even interested in proving to Sesshomoru that he doesn't own you?” Rin paused.

 

“What do you mean, own me?”

 

Kenji looked nonchalant. “Oh, I heard him when he said he did not require your services tonight. To me it made you sound like a whore that wasn't even worth the rut, but of course that was to me. I misinterpret all of the time. I did not realize that Sesshomoru did own you.” Kenji stood to his feet. “I must apologize for my behavior and take my leave before he picks my scent up on you.”

 

“I told you…Sesshomoru does not own me,” She snapped.

 

Kenji looked at her with a raised eyebrow. “Are you so sure of that?”

 

Rin's eyes sparkled dangerously. “Absolutely.”

 

“Good,” Kenji sat back down, “then you won't mind spending a little time with me.” He took a sip of his wine.

 

Rin sat back down as well. For some reason she felt, as though she had been played, but she would go along with it for now. “What do you get out of all of this?”

 

Kenji grinned. He had been expecting this response. “I would be in the company of a lovely lady and it would annoy Sesshomoru. What more is there?”

 

A black eyebrow arched. “I am not sleeping with you.”

 

Teal eyes shined in interest. “Your loss,” he replied. “The Earth would've moved.”

 

Rin bit the inner portion of her lip to keep from snickering. That had to be the corniest line she had ever heard. He seemed quite sure of himself and his skills and part of her wanted to let him know that it would be a cold day in hell before she would become intimate with a demon no matter how amusing they were. However, insulting the kitsune would get her no where. There was an obvious amount of information to gather. “The answer is still no.”

 

“Just so you know there wouldn't have been any sleeping involved…but… I respect your choice. I'll just have to entertain myself in other ways.”

 

“Just why you want to annoy Sesshomoru?” she asked curiously. Anything to change the subject from sex.

 

Kenji leaned in closer as he prepared to share his little secret. “He really does have beautiful eyes,” she thought as he got closer. Rin could feel herself getting lost in the blue-green oblivion. His hot breath tickled her senses and before she knew it, he was behind her. A gentle flush rose to her cheeks as he whispered low in her ear. “The same reason you do, it's fun,” he answered. His voice dripped with seduction. “Now I need to take my leave of you my lady. If you wish to find me, brother Shippo can help you or I can…just…find…you.” He reached for her hand and brushed his lips across her palm. He growled lowly. “Always a pleasure,” he whispered before departing.

 

Rin stared at her palm for a few seconds trying to calm her nerves. Perhaps there was something to the fox's claims after all. She shook her head. “Rin, what the hell are you thinking? Focus!” The demon hunter reached for her glass and downed the rest of the contents. She had to get a grip.

 

“Don't tell me you're going to be another panty dropper for that fox?” Inu Yasha groaned sitting beside her. He waved his hand in front of his face a few times then gave up on the effort. “He ruts with anything that walks. You're better off with Sesshomoru.”

 

Brown eyes flashed indignantly. “And what makes you think that I am the slightest bit interested in Sesshomoru.” She stood to her feet.

 

Inu Yasha tapped his nose twice knowingly then stood. “What you do and do it to isn't any of my business. I don't want to know. I just want to take you home so Sesshomoru will get off my back.”

 

“I don't need you or your brother to tell me what to do.” Rin brushed past Inu Yasha with her nose upturned.

 

Inu Yasha grabbed her by the arm. “Look, bitch, I don't like you, but Kagome and Ryoko do and I do not want to explain to them that Kagura ripped you to shreds, so work with me.”

 

Rin glared into amber eyes before ripping her arm from his grip. “Fine.” She stalked off with Inu Yasha following behind her.

 

From his office, Sesshomoru watched Inu Yasha and Rin leave. He was annoyed to say the least. The conversation between Kenji and Rin was a mystery. There were too many sounds to make it out, he attempted to read their lips when Kenji got behind Rin and whispered in her ear. He did not like that.

 

The fox was up to some thing.
